Rider Story | Amsterdam’s Canals & Beyond: How Alberto’s PVY Z20 MAX Powers City Life & Evening Rides

When Alberto Fernandez says he’s “maxing out the km range” on his PVY Z20 MAX, he isn’t exaggerating—this second e-bike has completely reshaped how he moves through Amsterdam. In just one month, it’s become his go-to for everything: commuting to work, enjoying scenic rides along the canals, and even delivering food in the evenings. With a long-range battery that supports his active lifestyle, Alberto now travels farther and more frequently—whether on a spontaneous four-hour adventure or daily city trips.
